Screenshot from Pop Team Epic showing two large, nearly identical, men in suits with microphones watching a sporting event. One of them is saying "I hope the penguins are safe."

"Hi, I'm [doctor], so you're here for [x], right?"

"No?"

"Really? Are you taking [y]?"

"No???"

"Huh, oh I see you're just slightly elevated there. So what brings you in?"

"I've been here for 20 hours. It's in my chart"

Why have I had 4 different doctors show up and say I'm here for a completely different reason than what I am and act surprised and then no one shows up for several hours other than to draw blood for the tenth time. Holy shit I'm losing my mind.

Boredom is gonna get me first. I'm so mad I forgot my earbuds, I'm just trapped with My Thoughts™

Well it doesn't look like I'm dying (yet anyway) but looks like I'm spending the night here.

Tarabites @taraflops.bsky.social · 19h

Anyway I'm bored as shit waiting for lab tests to come back AMA

I always forget that my veins are apparently so deep they can never find them.

Amazing what you can do and still get back in while Hideki Taniuchi gets blacklisted forever.

It really is just the modern Enron isn't it?

I am being asked to tell my department which pieces of lab equipment should be supported with backup power because they expect rolling blackouts and brownouts in 2026 due to increased energy demands from AI. In case you're wondering how my day is going.

You can't logic your way out of being burnt out. Unless you're me. Who should be able to do it and it's a personal failing that I can't

Auchi from The Great Ace Attorney sweating and looking distressed while his dialogue reads "Youngsters these days are forever asserting their 'rights'! It's a most disturbing trend..."

I still don't even own one and have zero reason to ever get one.

Who do they think is gonna buy an even more expensive console when they're already struggling to sell their existing ones at the current price?

Tarabites @taraflops.bsky.social · 4d

It's been comforting returning to my roots as an internet cryptid. My existence is unlikely and if you see me it was probably just swamp gas or a bear.

Do I need to give IBO a second go? I feel like I need to give it another shot, but I really don't want to because I couldn't stand any character in it when I watched it before and sitting through 50 eps of that again sounds like hell.

Minor reminder of what a shutdown functionally means aside from the theater.

What a government shutdown means for Californians, from Social Security to national parks

Critical benefits from the Social Security Administration and Medicare will keep flowing in a government shutdown. You could notice delays if it drags on.
